What benefit does Outlook Connector Provide?

[Bob]

I recently bought MS Office 2007 which has Outlook. I registered my hotmail
email to outlook express several years ago so "upgrading" to the full version
of Outlook went well. However I had to download the "Outlook Connector" for
my wife as she never set her hotmail account up with Outlook express. I
purchased two copies fo MS Office one for her and one for me. On my laptop As
I stated before Outlook works ok but on her laptop, I had to download and
install Outlook Connector. So I have one laptop with the connector tool and
one without. I am so new to the full version of outlook (2007) that I am
unaware of the benefits of installing the connector software.

I am looking for advice.

Thanks !

The Outlook Connector provides more connection stability, syncs contacts,
allows you to flag and categorize items, shows reply/forward icons and best
of all; it's a 2-way sync.

There are many more feature benefits if this isn't enough for you already
